I picked this thing up a couple of days ago and have no idea what it fits. I know one or more of you guys will know what year make and model it is...
Not early hemi......this manifold forms the valley cover..........All the early hemis Chry/dodge/desoto) had sheet metal vally covers and the manifold arched above them. Maybe later mopar ???? Ray
Almost looks like a manifold that would go on an engine that normally takes a valley pan with the arched intake.. but not with this setup. I first thought Studebaker, but don't think that's right.
You win my thanks,,,,,, Now tell me, what size motor would this fit......... So when I sell it I will informed enough to advertise it.............
I just googled the 182004 casting number shown in your pics. In less then 30 seconds about 10 pages of posts with the same definitive answer came up - it's for a 318 Poly from a '57 Plymouth Fury. Mart3406 ======================
Thanks again guys,,, I knew I could count on you. I found a bunch of other stuff i'll be needing help with........
So now that I know for sure what the intake is,,,,,,,,, Can anyone tell me what carbs. it used ??? The Bolt pattern looks a little odd to me.
Your 1957 Poly 318 dual quad intake will fit any 1956-1966 277, 301, 303, 313, 318, or 326 Poly. It was originally used with WCFB carbs as the last person posted but will accept the modern AFB style Edelbrock carbs (two 500cfm Eddys work fine) with a short spacer adapter to allow the moderns carb's throttle blades to clear the smaller throttle bores in the manifold. We made 412HP and 438ft.lbs. of torque with a '57 Plymouth dual quad manifold just like this on our last Poly Stroker build. Gary
I said mopar but couldn't ID the thing. Great to have so much talent in one spot--No where but on the Hamb
Last Poly 2X4 intake I asked "how much" for was at the Turlock Swap meet. Guy was real busy, he just shot me a glance, said: "Plenty, and that's only an estimate!"
Hotskins, I have a contact in El Paso with a beautiful dual quad Poly intake that has been tanked/cleaned and machined to accept the AFB carbs without adapters. Not sure of the etiquette, whether I can/should post his e-mail here, so just message me and I will send it to you. Gary
Those intakes generally go for around $350.00-$450.00. For some reason the single 4 barrel ones are more popular. I look for the bolt bosses at the left front as a sign of poly intake.Last 2 I sold were marine units and sold for that much....
